Kenta to Jun to Kayo-chan no Kuni

Friends Kenta and Jun are like brothers. Having grown up together in an orphanage, they now both graft away in a demolition squad, bullied and blackmailed by their boss, who has some unfinished business with Kentaʼs older brother Kazu. One night, the two friends pick up a simple-minded girl called Kayo. The three of them take revenge on those who have exploited them before heading off to Hokkaido in a stolen car, where Kazu is serving a long prison sentence. The relationships are raw, violent and without compassion. Mistreated creatures pass the humiliations and abuses they have suffered on to others. Kayo, who is used, bad-mouthed, robbed and finally abandoned by Kenta und Jun, is the only one to say what everyone elseʼs aimless rage prevents them from expressing: "I want to be loved". (Berlinale)
